No question replacing the wires from the battery to the converter back in the trailer would be a good thing, but I wasn't up to the task of running new wire. It would have meant pulling off the Coroplast underbelly cover to get to the wires. maybe in the future.

I know heavier wires would be a great benefit. Maybe a future project.

Looks very good to me. You'll find that it's a good improvement over what you had before, no doubt.
The 2 gauge wire is probably heavier than you need, but there's certainly no harm in that. Replacing the leads to the RV with heavier ones would have greater benefit (but also greater cost and greater difficulty in installation).
